FAQs

Frequently asked questions

How does draught exclusion work on sash windows?

We install precision-fitted brush or compression seals into the channels and meeting rails of your sash windows. These create an effective barrier against draughts while still allowing the sashes to slide freely. The seals are virtually invisible and do not alter the external appearance of the window.

Will draught-proofing reduce my energy bills?

Yes. Draught-proofing is one of the most cost-effective ways to improve the thermal efficiency of period windows. By sealing gaps around the sashes and frame, you reduce heat loss significantly, which translates directly into lower heating bills — particularly during the colder months.

Does draught exclusion also reduce noise?

Yes. The seals used in our draught exclusion systems also act as a barrier to external noise. Many of our clients notice a significant reduction in traffic and street noise after draught-proofing, making their homes noticeably quieter and more comfortable.

Can you draught-proof windows in a listed building?

Absolutely. Our draught exclusion systems are specifically designed for period properties and are fully compatible with listed building and conservation area requirements. The installation is discreet and reversible, with no permanent alteration to the original window fabric.
